Stress Test

We passed!

And the truth be told, the past 2 weeks weren't overly stressful, they were fun. OK, fun and exhausting. Within 10 days, we closed on a new house, moved, painted, cleaned, celebrated Gus' 3rd b-day, my 33rd b-day, Nora's 3-mo b-day (does that count?), did both kids' doc check ups, and I started back to work which means Nora had her first few days at daycare. I don't think we'll try to pack that much into a 10-day period again for quite awhile.

It was a whirlwind, but we cannot complain. We love our new home, and we are very grateful that we had our families in town to share in the excitement with us. They helped paint, clean, entertain kids, fix stuff, lift heavy objects, etc. You name it, they did it. THANK YOU!

So here's your invitation: swing by or stay if you make a pit stop in Fargo. Nora wants to smile at you, so come on over.

I love this stage, the smiley-baby stage. All you need to do is glance in her direction and she grins from ear to ear.

The big 0-3!
